'Stay at The Duke, Dine at The Duke, Music at The Duke' ~ Clair Leckie
Pub History
Visiting the Duke of Wellington means your visiting an historic English Inn. The original Inn was called The Greyhound and became The Crown after the restoration of the Monarchy in 1660.
Initially, the pub faced the Village Street but Lord Lovelace’s predecessor had it rebuilt by Charles Barrie and turned it around to face the new Turnpike road (opened in 1758). It was renamed the Duke of Wellington after the hero of the day.
What Our Customers Say
-
From the moment we arrived Lucy made us feel so welcome and nothing was too much trouble.
I feel sure we will return again for further family get togethers. We wish you all well in the future and hope your business continues to flourish.
-
With the greatest of pleasure I have put pen to paper to write thanking the Management and Staff of the Duke for the hospitality I have received over the last 3 months that I have frequented the Duke with the results being that I would for sure recommend it to other friends and business colleges for its very friendly atmosphere, light entertainment, and to complement the very good range of beers and a selective menu with both local and international choices.
The Duke of Wellington Today
The Pub has a long traditional styled bar, a duke box, pool table, darts area and a large separate seating area for drinks and dining. During the cold days and winter months, you can sit relaxing in front of a large roaring open fire, perfect for warming-up after a winter walk in the local countryside. The Duke welcomes children and well-behaved dogs and there's a high chair for the comfort of your 'little one'.
The pub has Sky Sports and show many live sports events, often with special beer or food promotions to accompany your viewing.
Outside there is a pretty beer garden and a decking area that can seat around 100 people. At night this is beautifully lit with ground lighting to add to the ambiance. The balcony decking area to the side of the pub is covered and heated in inclement weather for your comfort.
The Inn has a courtyard to the rear where the nine en-suite guest rooms are located. Each room is unique in design and many embrace the history of the pub.
The menu has been created by head chef, Clair Leckie alongside resident chef, Andy Golder. The style of food has an emphasis on being comforting, delicious and at sensible prices. Cream Teas and cakes that are prepared daily on the premises are available all day.
